    I got this for free with my order. Bad part about that it means I have no info about it.
    not sure what it is so no idea where to place it in tank or if it needs special feedings.
    For now I am treating it like a mushroom. It looks most like one of those to me.

    The coral in question is the purple flower looking things.
    It came in a bag attached or growing out of the sticks you see in pic.
    There are also long leaves coming from stick. So please help me. I love it.
    I hope one of you know how I can make it survive.
